Are you ready for some football on Switch 2? After skipping the entire Switch generation, EA CEO Andrew Wilson has hinted that the Madden NFL series could return to Nintendo for the upcoming console. The last time an entry in the sports franchise released on a Nintendo platform was Madden NFL 13 on Wii and Wii U in 2012.
Wilson was found name-dropping the Madden and EA Sports FC franchises for Switch 2 during an earnings call earlier this week. “… Any time a new console comes into the marketplace, that’s of a benefit to us,” said Wilson. “It gives us the ability to access and acquire new players. Typically, we’ve had franchises perform very well on Nintendo platforms. Certainly, our expectation is that products like [EA Sports] FC and Madden and others might find real energy on the platform as they have done in the past.”
